August 26, 200223 yr Hi all,Just arrived from holidays, and after a short participation in another team's project as gauge programmer, I'll start over my ATR72-500 (I hope it will be good enough as for Anniette to make one of her fantastic liveries for it...). I'll make it in Air Nostrum colours. So I must start looking for ideas for my next project. It HAS to be a propeller plane. Best would be a 4-prop. When I was a child (too many years ago), my father used to take me to the airport where we lived at Valencia; then I got in love with those beautiful shiny airliners. During these holidays I had the oprtunity to see some of them abandoned at El Alto airport (at Bolivia).I accept suggestions for this next project: my preferred ones are DC-4, DC-6 or Constellation, but other ideas will be OK, provided there is enough information around about them. If anyone knows about a site with photos of the cabin iterior, etc. I'll greatly appreciate (I'll make it with a VC of course).Any ideas are welcome. Thanks.Paco
August 26, 200223 yr Hi Paco,Good to hear you are back from your holiday (I hope you enjoyed it)and that you are working on the 72. I am looking forward to that release.I have seen on your site that you have problems with webspace on your provider. I have more than enough at the moment so if you wanna host your download files on my site that's not a problem.Let me know
August 26, 200223 yr Paco, Here are my preferences.1. Connie2. DC-63. DC-4 Any of these aircraft would be fantastic. We've not seen these aircraft with a VC, and I think it would be teriffic. Earl
August 26, 200223 yr An updated Connie would be MAGNIFICENT. There currently is NOT a decent Connie available, I have the one from Tom Gibson's site, but it just doesn't cut it anymore.Hornit

August 26, 200223 yr I just want to say that I am a huge fan of your ATR series (even moreso after your ATR 42-500 for its better framerates), and I am looking forward with great anticipation to your ATR 72-500! I think I'll put my request in early for an American Eagle and Air Dolomiti repaint! Maybe, though, if you get a chance, you'd be willing to make a modification to the 72-500 props and make it a 72-212? The main difference (visually) between the 72-202 and the 72-212 is that the props are shaped differently and the spinner on the -212 is noticable larger - for photo examples, check out any pictures of Atlantic Southeast Airlines' ATR 72s. As for the 4-prop planes, my vote goes to the Connie! Cheers!ATR 72-202/210:http://www.airliners.net/open.file/266256/L/http://www.airliners.net/open.file/261406/L/ATR 72-212:http://www.airliners.net/open.file/248171/L/http://www.airliners.net/open.file/211368/L/Well, that's just my 2 cents ;) Take it easy, Paco!George
August 26, 200223 yr I'd say the Constellation, she looks a bit ugly but she's made aviation history.http://www.airliners.net/open.file/162340/M/
August 27, 200223 yr My First repaint of 72 Will Definatly be American Eagle !!!!!!I would like to see a PAco SAbb 340 Gmax but that would not be big enough for you I guess :-)Just to Say paco you are A brillient Designer and Anything you make will be A lot of Happiness for Lots of people :)Anniette xxxxxxxxx
August 27, 200223 yr Hi Paco,A DC-4 would be my preference. Your ATR was pretty special.

August 27, 200223 yr A Constellation made by a designer of your talents would be the greatest addition to FS2K2 I could possibly dream of! If you included a VC even close to you ATR it would be amazing!!!!The Connie is a wonderful and historical piece of art. We desperately need an updated version.I vote for the Constellation!!!!Boone
August 28, 200223 yr Hi Ralph!That's very kind from you, I appreciate your offer, but I am in process of solving my site problems.Thanks a lot,Paco
August 28, 200223 yr Connie all the way!If not then DC6http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...25b2aaaa7ec.jpg
August 28, 200223 yr Let's see:Lockheed Constellation : 5 votesDC-4 : 2 votesSaab 340: Anniette's voteLockheed Electra : 1 vote (I love that plane too)It looks like it will be a Connie; any more opinions? Anniette, I will seriously consider the 340 too. If not now, maybe later on...Paco
